The last time I tried pacemaker on a test cluster at work, it didn't work at
all.  This was apparently because multicast was required, and the people who
run networking at work said they wouldn't turn multicast on for any of the
switches.  heartbeat, though, works reasonably well because it doesn't require
multicast.

FWIW, Marcel's haresources had "nfs nfslock", while a heartbeat-using NFS
cluster here has "nfslock nfs" in the same place.  The /etc/init.d/ scripts
have chkconfig comments showing nfslock starting before nfs.  So that's
another thing for Marcel to look at.
